Details

The Styles property provides programmatic access to individual styles coded within the Theme.
 
Themes are primarily intended to be used as a global solution to styling, similar in concept to a CSS. DrawStyles are used to control appearance for given controls and features.
 
However, there are circumstances where a broadbrush approach is not appropriate, so individual styles can be created and stored in a Theme. These are accessible via the Styles property.

Example

Applying a theme style to a control.
#Control.Style <= #Theme<StyleName>
